besides the basics (cap,plugs,wires,etc) before i put my motor in (94 ls) what else would you reccomend (while its out) replacing/checking? i want my motor to run like new

 

Full tune up consists of:

- Fuel filter replacement
- Cap/Rotor, spark plugs, spark plug wires
- Oil Change/Oil filter change
- Coolant flush and change

Pretty simple.

 

also recommended:

transmission fluid (for clutch type LSDs)
check brake pads/shoes
check radiator hoses
check axles
check steering rack

 

for the motor itself.... while its on the enigne stand..before it goes in...

 

timming belt, timming belt tensioner, water pump, balancer shaft belt.
